I don’t know if anyone else listens to Conan O'Brien's podcast. But over the past couple of months, he has done a 4 part miniseries, where him, Dana Carvey, Kevin Nealon, and Robert Smigel table read scenes from an aborted script that they wrote. The script was titled "Hans and Frans & The Girlieman Dilemma. Which would’ve starred Carvey, Nealon, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Dolph Lundgren.
Any possibility of the movie being made hinged on Arnold saying yes. And he did show initial interest, it quickly fell apart and the movie never got made. But, damn, I wish it had. It reads like one of the most wonderfully stupid movies you’d ever see. It also reads like something that never stood a chance of being made. The cameo list alone was hilariously ridiculous. Full of people who wouldn’t have wanted any part of the roles written for the . But if there's a parallel universe, where this actually got made, I want to go there. Because I laughed my ass off at the script, alone.

I doubt this would have had any real legs to be good.
This was around the time when SNL was making movies off a lot of their popular characters like Pat, Coneheads, Stuart Smalley, or even later with the Roxbury Guys, the Ladies Man or Mary Katherine Gallagher.
They just kept trying to chase the success they had with Wayne's World and it just never worked for a feature movie. Only other example would be The Blues Brothers.
There was also a rumored Sprockets movies with David Hasselhoff attached, but it was so bad that even Mike Myers didn't want to be a part of it. This is the same Mike Myers who was okay with The Cat in the Hat and The Love Guru.

A hard R Toonces, Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer, Goatboy and Matt Foley 90's teen sex comedy ensemble movie would have made a Billion Dollars.

Maybe he should have just did Sprockets.

He apparently wrote a script... sat on it for a week and decided it was garbage. Universal sued him cause they gave him like 3 million in advance to make the movie and they thought he basically took it and run... they settled out of court that he'd make another movie for them instead... the greatest movie ever made.
